Genetic variants in dyf-7 validated by droplet digital PCR are not drivers for ivermectin resistance in Haemonchus contortus

Resistance to ivermectin (IVM) in the nematode Haemonchus contortus in small ruminants is an increasing problem throughout the world. Access to molecular diagnostics will allow early detection of IVM resistance, which in turn can limit the spread of resistant isolates. One candidate gene which has r...
